Ah, so a nice, warm, approachable candidate!

Just the traits that we need in our POTUS.

I saw a clip of him on the Daily Show last week, he was singing John Lennon's Imagine with the lyrics "Imagine there's no pizza, I wonder if you can..." The dude cannot sing.

That's the same protocol for royalty.

Heh. Can one put on airs before one is elected?

It's kind of pathetic how little power one must have to develop an unrealistic sense of importance.

"So stick to your desk and never go to sea and you may be the ruler of the Queen's navy!" (I saw Pinafore a few weeks ago)

I just can't see Cain as POTUS. People say that a lack of government experience is a bonus, I do not agree. I remember before the Iowa Straw Poll that he came out saying that all bills for laws could be no longer than three pages. There's probably a good amount of verbiage that could be cut out of bills, not to mention huge amounts of pork, but except for resolutions recognizing some sports team or another, I don't think it's a realistic proposition.

When you're the front-runner, you're king of all you can see, right? So you can just demand whatever you like?
